By 'eck, I've changed my maybe to a yes. That doesn't happen very often. Coyote and gf will be coming along in the GTA, so no Stilo in the convoy after all.

Unless there is huge demand for the added flavour of a Stilo being there! Either way should be fun! Gotta love Blackpool chips!

is that a real thing then 'salt free zone' or did you just make it up? Considering I live about as far from the sea as you can get in this country and up a hill, I don't think this is a dumb question (i hope not anyway)
